What’s Little Weeds you gonna ask ? “Little Weeds is three a series of three five-to-six week heats. It’s an online competition where you create a profile and upload photos and video of yourself. Those entries are then voted on by the public. There are five categories: modelling, surfing, writing, photography and videography. The three winners of the three heats (ultimately chosen by mentors after considering all votes and comments) of all five categories will be flown to an undisclosed location in July to compete against other Little Weeds. From here (and sponsorship proposals willing), we’ll take all five winners to another undisclosed location (okay, Bali) and create an entire issue of Stab (or Spit x Stab) on-location created by and featuring Little Weeds winners”.

So Chad has entered the competition in the videography category. Check his profile here to read more about Chad and watch a cople clips edited by Chad. We hope Chad’s gonna win that thing coz he fuckin’ deserves it.
Surfing seriously needs some good film makers and creative people and Chad is one of them. When you watch bbing videos like the Nofriends series, the Waldrons vids, Todd Barnes vids or Bryce Thurston’s vids you can clearly see how much talent there is in the bbing community. Is there more talent where money’s not involved ? Pretty much all bbing movie makers made all their vids for the love of it. We’ve also seen great talents in the longboarding/alternative crafts/fishs/eggs/singlefins/arty stuff like Seaworthy, Thread, Sprout etc. in the last couple years but we havent seen too many new talents in shortboard movies. Seriously. Let’s hope the Little Weeds comp will bring cool new people in the limelight !
